HC Deb 15 May 1984 vol 60 c97W
Mr. Cohen

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department on what date Miss Zola Budd's father applied to register as a British citizen; and on what date the application was allowed.

Mr. Waddington

The hon. Member has misunderstood the position. Mr. Budd had no need to apply for a citizenship he already possessed by descent from his father.
